As announced yesterday, there will now be a small charge to post job ads to FWJ. The good news is that the process is totally automated now and you won’t need to wait for me to get to my email to post or delete ads. Ads will be viewable on the Freelance Writing Job Ads page, and I’ll also link to them in my daily leads posts. As soon a I can figure out the feed, I’ll make that available as well. Thanks for your understanding.

Also, I keep promising to announce the results of the Limerick Contest. I’ll do my best to do that today. We chose a winner weeks ago but life keeps getting in the way of the announcement!

This is the first of many major changes to happen at the Freelance Writing Jobs network. This summer will yield many surprises!

Happy Tuesday, Everyone! Deb is on her way back from SXSW, and I’m sure she found it a valuable and enjoyable experience. Did anyone else find that they were a bit “off” yesterday? I blame the time change. Here are your leads for today. Hope you find something interesting on the list.Do you follow FWJ on Facebook?

I’m heading to Austin on Thursday to cover South by Southwest, and I’ll be gone for several days. We’re blogging ahead, plus there will be some special guest posters during that time. Jodee Redmond begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting will be stopping by here to make sure you still get your daily dose of leads. I’m looking forward to the conference and planning a special meetup for members of the Freelance Writing JObs community who will be there. I look forward to bringing you the highlights.

Yesterday as I was doing a little outside cleanup I noticed the very tips of my crocuses peeking out of the mulch surrounding my mailbox. Seeing green plus this weekend’s fifty plus degree weather did wonders for my frame of mind. The air is full of promise and it shows in everything I do.

Good morning Freelance Writing Jobs community. I had a full on working weekend, yet didn’t even cross off half the items on my “to do” list. Mind you, that’s not a complaint. I did some fun family things, but mostly the other residents of Casa Ng were doing their own things and it was a good time for me to play catch up. Someone once asked me if I wouldn’t rather spend weekends doing what I enjoy. The truth is, I enjoy my work and I’m not quick to ditch it once the weekend comes around. I’m a workaholic for sure, but not so much that my family never sees me or I don’t take some time out for myself. Some folks like to relax with a movie or a good book on the weekends, I like to blog or write.

Here’s to a positive week. Remember, on Monday everyone has a clean slate.
